I am a PADI-certified diver, and booked a Discover Scuba session for my girlfriend, Jessica. She had snorkeled previously, but had no experience with scuba, and was admittedly a bit nervous about it all. Kat was our instructor/guide, and did a great job introducing the basics of scuba equipment, breathing process and buoyancy control before we ever stepped foot on the boat. On the first dive, I hung out in the background while Kat did a one-on-one instruction with Jessica, and we were quickly underwater and diving! By the second dive, Jessica’s nervousness had been transformed into excitement, and she now wants to move forward into open-water certification! THANK YOU Kat for providing Jessica with such a great introduction to scuba, and turning an initially overwhelming challenge into a smooth, thorough and very fun experience!

Thank you, William. It’s wonderful to hear how Kat helped Jessica go from feeling nervous to excited about diving and ready to take the next step toward her Open Water certification. We’ll make sure Kat sees your kind words. If you don’t mind, would you consider copying your review to Google? It really helps our small business.

I had such a great day! Everything was perfect from the center to the water. Coiba is an amazing spot to dive and Kat is a wonderful instructor. Quality of the equipment is great, food was nice too and all the team members make sure you're having a great time.

A truly excellent dive center if you are looking to dive in coiba national park or the Contreras. Amazingly friendly staff and owner. Very accommodating and knowledgeable of the local dive sites. Damien was an absolute legend and will show you all the best creatures there is to see within the park ! They also offer multi day trips that sound like an absolute blast . For sure recommended diving with them for anyone in the area 🤘 I will be back 🙌😃

We were really interested in doing an overnight experience at Bahia Honda and Julie made it happen by signing up another couple for our dates (who turned out to be very cool). We ended up doing a 3 day/2 night trip in Bahia Honda (this allowed us to dive the more remote sites in Coiba National Park) and 1 day of 3 dives from Santa Catalina. 12 dives in total. We saw amazing wildlife while diving including 10+ diamond head rays, 6+ bull sharks up close, 2 giant oceanic mantas, a school of mobula (devil) rays, guitar sharks, electric bulls eye rays, giant frog fish and a sea horse. We also saw turtles, many white tip reefs sharks, octopuses and large school of jack and giant trevallies on all dives. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. Food was great - boxed lunches and fresh fruit on beautiful island surface intervals and tasty dinners in a small fishing village. We were also greeted by cold beers and tasty snacks at the end of each dive day which were much appreciated. Damian, the dive master, spoke perfect English, was extremely knowledgeable and experienced and had a genuine love of nature in general and Coiba national park specifically. We had an amazing experience and would recommend this dive shop to anyone with a love for diving in an unspoilt paradise. A big thank you to Julie and the rest of the team!
